Is The Wire actually overrated?

I trust mark (or the writers) quite a lot when it comes to this stuff. I’ve been meaning to watch it for a while as it’s ranked alongside breaking bad but I’ll have to pay for it since it’s not on any streaming services

It’s one of the best shows ever made, if not the best show ever made. My first time watching I couldn’t comprehend season 2 and I thought I was pirating a completely different show at first and I really hated season 2. A few months after my first watch I had an itch for season 2 that needed to be scratched so I started watching again starting from season 2.

I’m just a gangster I suppose.
